I know what it is like to feel. feelings are are what make life worth living. Your happiest moments and your saddest is all your emotion. Emotion can be a good thing and a bad thing.

I know what it is like to feel bullied. As an elementary schooler I would be bullied, discriminated, isolated, picked on you name it. Being bullied is one of the worst feelings in the world. It makes you believe you have no worth. There was one day I can clearly remember, it was a bright blue day with almost no clouds in the sky. The field was all grass of a dusty green color and the randomly placed dirt patches. In the corner of the field you can see a backstop this is where everybody played baseball like events. For PE our unit was kickball when I went up to go hit all of the other kids said I couldn't play because I was stupid. I tried to rebel but they had greater size and numbers. That was my worst memory but most of the time they just make sure I went last, I didn't get to play where I wanted, or I will just get picked last. Most days kids would make fun of me in class when the teacher wasn't paying attention. Calling me stupid because I can't spell very well. It hurt my feelings and I didn't ever want to go to school. That is what it feels like to be bullied.

I know what it is like to hate. I hate onions. I hate cauliflower. I hate fish. But have you ever hated a person. I used to hate my bullies with a passion. You could put them in a bad situation and I would take joy of it. I would want to take revenge for every thing that they ever did to me. Any time some one might have said something mean to me I would find a way to get them back. Some times I would wait gather information and get ready so any time he approached me trying to hurt me or say anything that could offend me, I would get them two times harder.

I know what it's like to forgive and be forgiven. I used to hate my bullies. By middle school we would always get in conflicts. Every day we would fight. Sometimes we don't have anything to fight about so we tried to make ways to do it. In a way sometimes we enjoyed it. It had gotten to the point where he was no longer my bully I was his. But soon it was too much. I started to realize what was going on. It had to stop. All of the hatred would not get us anywhere and could really damage our way of living. So through our war of nonstop fighting we made a truce. We would stay at a mutual understanding. And if we were to fight again we would always remember of our newfound peace and put an end to it. We had made up, this constant state of arguing would never be repeated.

I know what it's like to love. When me and my old bully had finally come to a mutual understanding my Life became much happier. My family life has been much better. Just seeing my parents was great. One reason is because every day they would ask how was your day and I would give them a glum look and say good, but now I really mean it. Being with my family is one of my favorite things to do I especially look forward to Christmas and Thanksgiving just to spend Time with my family. I am now much better in school I maintain a minimum 3.5 Grade average by nobody's account but my own. And now I have great friends. Sam Bova, Nathan Bova, Jack Veilbig, Tyler Ladelle are some of my greatest friends that go to Foothill, I also have great friends outside of foothill David Thompson, Stone Martinez, Matthew Godfrey, and Jace Halsed. Anybody can change their life for the better you just got to see the positives, but you can't ignore the negatives you just Gotta make it a positive.
